I was in a Army training movie only once and it had me sitting in my jeep with my commander watching the battle below us. My jeep had fake Russian Stars on the side of it and on day 3 of filming I got to see a dead man come back to life real fast. During that scene it was a tank on tank battle with infantry support and one of the grunts was supposed to die but when he died he fell on his back onto a cactus bush and got up real fast screaming. The medics had fun that day using some kind of pliers pulling out needles out of his back but for all those five days of filming we was on in the movie for about 90 seconds when we got to see the final results.

Wow! Really? I can't believe you were ACTING! :laughing::laughing::laughing: Did you win a major award?
I once had a boss, one of the best bosses I ever had, who used to write **** stories. I assume he was making scripts for movies too but he never said. The funny thing was that this guy was a bit of a rebel, as one would expect, but he ended up working for the IRS as a Collections agent and manager. He and his employees were the ones that seized your property for failing to pay taxes. :shocked: I was always amused by the idea of an ex **** writer, I always wondered if he did more than write, who morphed into an executive plane taker. :laughing::laughing::laughing:

While doing morning exercises at Fort Knox Kentucky we were informed that a small plane would be flying over, and at a given command we were to fall down and play dead. We later found out we were in the movie Goldfinger, the plane flew over and supposedly spread posion gas to kill us.

You sure they were sold as **** stories and not Harlequin Romances? I picked up one of my wife's and she asked me why my ears turned so red all of a sudden. ;-)
